B 为了够到那只苹果,小男孩踮起脚尖,尽可能把身体伸展到最高的程度。expand扩大,扩充,扩展;stretch伸展,舒展;swing摆动,摇动;pull拉,扯,拔。 40. D 根据语境可知,小男孩是站着伸手去够苹果,因此此处指的是身体的高度,不是力量、长度或范围。 41. A 根据生活常识可判断,既然小男孩站着够不到苹果,他只能开始上下跳跃。 42. C 每次跳到最高的时候,小男孩就伸长了胳膊去够苹果。at the top of在……顶部或顶端。 43. D 根据下文可知,小男孩最终没有摘到苹果。out of reach是固定短语,意为“手够不着, 达不到”。 44. B 根据下文内容可知,小男孩没有放弃,他想如果自己踩在某些东西上面就能够到苹果了。 45. A 小男孩身上背着书包,可他不想弄坏里面装的东西。break在此处表示“弄坏,折断”。 46. D 根据上下文内容可知,为了找到能踩在脚下的东西,小男孩四处环顾。look around四处环顾。 47. B 小男孩希望自己能够找到一个旧箱子,一块大石头,或者,如果顺利的话,能找到一架梯子。for luck为了吉利,为了祈求好运;with luck如果一切顺利的话;其他两个介词不能与luck搭配。 48. C 小男孩尝试了所有的方法,在眼看没有任何其他选择的情况下,小男孩只好放弃了。 49. B 没有办法摘到苹果,小男孩只好失望地走开。walk away走开。 50. C 根据上文可知,小男孩做了很多努力,因此耗尽了力气,觉得又累又饿。 51. A 此处表示他越是这样想,就越觉得不开心。 52. B 根据上下文内容可知,此处存在的是转折关系,所以选择however“然而,可是”。 53. D 根据下文内容可知,小男孩开始理智地看待自己遇到的问题,觉得生气、失望、难过等都没有帮助,不能从根本上解决问题。 54. D 结合上文内容可知,小男孩清醒地认识到自己已经没有其他法子可用了,苹果也不会得到了。 55. A 小男孩的反省也是文章主题的升华:面对无法解决的问题,我们可以做到的就是改变自己的情感态度。 7.(2011·四川卷)完形填空 I truly feel that my mother led me here,to Morzaine,and to my future as happy wife and bussinesswoman.When Mum 21 in October 2007,I was cook..

They have a choice . And that is to write.”(因为我们生活在通讯工具便捷的时代,人们难免会忘掉我们不必总得用电话或电子邮件联系,我们还有另一种选择,那就是写信。) 这样的记叙思路恰好是全国卷高考英语命题的潜在思想,达到了教育性 启迪性的目的。 该试题的难度和前几年相比,难度相当;用词选项方面,都间接考查了构词法:reread, deepem等,类似于去年的acceptance,难度上略微有所增加。 详细解析 21. D 解析:前文有enjoy, read,不可能是received 或 returned, 只能是“重读”。Rewritten表示“重写” 22. C 表示保持两人的友谊 23. A 根据后文举例说明,故用give an example 24. C get through通过,完成; get together 聚会,聚焦; get along 相处; get away走开,离开 25. B Children 与后面的grow apart呼应 26. C 根据后文的our conversation was filled with arguments and quarrels,推理出“不愉快”,选择pleasant 27. A 根据情感变化是“加深误解”,故选用deepen,该题主要考构词法 28. D 搬家,迁居,move to some place 29. A 失去联系lose touch with sb. 30. B 根据上下文,鼓励我写信 encourage me to write 31. A. drive 驾驶;驱动;驱赶。这里是为他的语言文字所驱使或驱动之意。 32. D 忆往昔,曾几何时,这些品质恰是我尊重哥哥的原因。Once 曾经 33. C 但“认为”他不再具备这些品质。Thought说明过去的想法 34. A 强调写信的好 35. D 我们再一次成为朋友。Again“再一次,又” 36. D 整句话是虚拟语气,“如果哥哥去的地方不是因为没有电话,他将不会给我写信”是哥哥的身上发生的事 37. C 同36题 38. B 当代是通讯发达的年代,故选easy,表示便捷的意思。 39. D 根据文章,人们忘掉了这一点(参考总体评析)。此处提醒人们要记得并非必须用电话、电子邮件才能交流 40. B 另一种选择 choice Passage 5 (10·山东) It was a cool October evening. Excitement and family members __36___ the hall. I was only a 7-year-old girl, but I was the center of __37___. Finally, after weeks of preparation, I would __38_ all my hard work in a dance of performance. Everything would be __39___ —so I thought.

Now when friends and family laugh about the time I slipped during a dance performance, I can laugh too. 36.

I 21 your opinion from. The L. A. Times with my family and thought about you as my student at Hibbing High School.” It was 22 Margarel Leibfried, — a teacher who helped me believe that I could become 23 . Thirty years ago, in Hibbing, I 24 high school as a bookish introvert(内向)made all the more shy because I was the school’s only non—while student. I always felt 25 being swept away by a sea of golden hair schoolmates. By 10th grade, I’d developed strange behavior, hoping to 26 being laughed at as a “brain”. I spent a lot of time alone, reading and writing stories. Ms. Leibfried taught composition grammar, as well as the usual – memorizing vocabulary and reading 27 . Exciting to me, that is. Many of my classmates expressed dislike for novels because they were “not real.” For once, I didn’t care what they thought. Ms. Leibfried seemed to notice my 28 in both reading and writing, and she took the time to draw me out; she 29 offered reading suggestions. That year’s big task was a book report, to be read aloud to 30 . 31 , Ms. Leibfried suggested I do something “a little different.” Instead of a report. I was to 32 a passage from a book, memorize it and reeite it in front of the class. The morning of the presentations, I remember 33 sweating(出汗)so badly as I walked to the front of the class that I held my hands 34 in prayer(祈祷)formation, so I wouldn’t wipe them on my shirt. I finished and, 35 , the class broke out in applause(鼓掌). “As a writer and a good reader, Marie has 36 a particularly sensitive part of novel and 37 it beautifully,” Ms. Leibfried said, smiling. I felt, maybe for the first time, confident. I can now appreciate how much 38 it must have taken for those teachers to let me move away so 39 from the lesson plan. With today’s pressure on teachers to “teach to the test,” I wonder if any would or could take the time to find the potential(潜力)in a single, 40 student. Good teaching helps make productive and fully realized adults – a result that won’t show up in each term’s test scores. 21.A.shared B.proved C.introduced D.explained 22.A.written B.signed C.marked D.said 23.A.a student B.a teacher C.a writer D.an adult 24.A.left B.served C.entered D.missed 25.A.in charge of B.in honor of C.in danger of D.in need of 26.A.escape B.stand C.enjoy D.admit 27.A.news B.poems C.novels D.diaries 28.A.mistakes B.interest C.condition D.trouble 29.A.still B.never C.only D.even 30.A.the teachers B.the parents C.the class D.the public 31.A.Therefore B.However C.Besides D.Otherwise 32.A.pick B.write C.read D.describe 33.A.my face B.my legs C.my hands D.my neck 34.A.cupped B.closed C.tied D.covered 35.A.to my sadness B.to my surprise C.to my joy D.to my delight 36.A.looked out B.picked out C.put out D.carried out 37.A.carried B.drew C.delivered D.designed 38.A.courage B.attention C.knowledge D.pleasure 39.A.seriously B.broadly C.similarly D.carly 40.A.good B.bad C.shy D.strange 【答案】21-25 ABCCC 26-30 ACBDC 31-35 BACAB 36-40 BCABC 2. 【2011·河北邢台市一模】 完型填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 “Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced 21 . “If you carry on, one day 22 good will happen.

I’ve always been glad about that. It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t money for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 23 for the kids was the fun of Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 24 to share by all five of us. The big 25 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty – dollar bill and 26 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered. We had two hours to shop; then we would meet back at the “Santa’s Workshop”. Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, except my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 27 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies - fifty – cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything until we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed as the door, ready to be angry again. This is what she told me. “ I was looking around 28 of what to buy, and I stopped to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees’.

We had not 22 much from the war there, though, like most children of my age, I often saw 23 houses in the streets and the very big 24 lorries passing through. But both at home and at school I had become 25 to the phrases “before the war” and “when the war is over”. “Before the war”, obviously, 26 had been better, though I was too young to understand why, 27 there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice cream and bananas, which I had 28 heard of. When the war was over we would go back to London, but this meant very 29 to me. I did not remember what London was like. What I remember now 30 V-Day was the afternoon and the evening. Some boys and girls were collecting 31 and building an enormous bonfire. We stood and watched them for a time, and then I went home and 32 myself in with my key and waited for my parents to come back from work. It was May and still broad 33 when my mother arrived, and my father came in about an hour later. After dinner I said I wanted to 34 the bonfire, so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was very 35 , and somehow people had collected some old clothes to 36 “Hitler” with the moustache they had put on top of it. Just as we arrived, they set light to it. The flames 37 soon. Everyone was cheering and shouting. I stood beside my father until the 38 started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing, either.

Donna was one of the volunteer teachers who participated in this 36 . One day, I entered Donna’s classroom, took a seat in the back of the room and 37 . All the students were working 38 a task. The student next to me was filling her page with “I Can’ts.” “I can’t kick the soccer ball.” “I can’t get Debbie to like me.” Her page was half full and she showed no 39 of stopping. I walked down the row and found 40 was writing sentences, describing things they couldn’t do. By this time the activity aroused my 41 , so I decided to check with the teacher to see what was going on 42 I noticed she too was busy writing. “I can’t get John’s mother to come for a parents’ meeting.” …… I felt it best not to 43 . After another ten minutes, the students were 44 to fold the papers in half and bring them to the front. They placed their “I Can’t” statements into an empty shoe box. Then Donna 45 hers. She put the lid on the box, tucked it under her arm and headed out the door.?? Students followed the teacher. I followed the students. Halfway down the hallway Donna got a shovel from the tool house, and then marched the students to the farthest corner of the playground. There they began to 46 . The box of “I Can’ts” was placed at the 47 of the hole and then quickly covered with dirt. At this point Donna announced, “Boys and girls, please join hands and 48 your heads.” They quickly formed a circle around the grave. Donna delivered the eulogy (悼词). “Friends, we gathered here today to 49 the memory of ‘I Can’t.’ He is 50 by his brothers and sisters ‘I Can’ and ‘I Will’. May ‘I Can’t’ rest in 51 . Amen!” She turned the students 52 and marched them back into the classroom. They celebrated the 53 of “I Can’t”. Donna cut a large tombstone from paper. She wrote the words “I Can’t” at the top and the date at the bottom, then hung it in the classroom. On those rare occasions when a student 54 and said, “I Can’t,” Donna 55 pointed to the paper tombstone. The student then remembered that “I Can’t” was dead and chose other statement. 36.
